The Sunday night blues hit me hard this week! Baking usually helps improve my mood so I looked through my grandma’s cookbook. It has become one of my favorite books to read. I always find a new recipe that I didn’t notice before. Today it was Peanut Butter Bread.
Have you ever heard of Peanut Butter Bread? I had not. I have had peanut butter cookies, peanut butter sandwiches, and even peanut butter with celery, but not peanut butter bread. Peanut butter is one of my favorite flavors so I knew I had to try it.
The ingredients are quite common so I didn’t have to go buy anything, which is always a plus. It was even better because I was already in my pajamas and not about to go out.
The recipe was quick and easy to make. I only had to dirty one bowl and it took less than 10 minutes to prepare. The messiest part was mixing the peanut butter in by hand.
As soon as it was cooled enough to eat, Hubby and I tried a piece. It did not disappoint. The bread was not as sweet as I was expecting, but it was still very good. For the second piece, we added homemade raspberry jam. It was like eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich!
Have you ever heard of peanut butter bread? If you make this recipe, let me know! I want to hear what you think!

This is a new one to me. I have never heard of peanut butter bread! I like the simplicity of the ingredients and the process. Surprisingly, I am out of peanut butter, but I printed out the recipe so I can give it a try after my next shopping trip. Sounds like something my kid would like. I think I’ll toast a slice, see how that goes. Send more of grandmas hidden gems our way.
